(Minghui.org) My brother and I are Falun Dafa practitioners. He opened a factory and hired me. The economy took a downturn in China, and many enterprises went out of business. We had a strong thought: “We are Dafa practitioners. As long as we do things based on the Fa, Master will arrange our path.” Our business became very successful.
Customer Appreciates Practitioners’ Honesty
We cultivated and did the three things. Whoever came to our company, including our employees and their families, heard about Falun Dafa, the persecution, and about quitting the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its youth organizations.
The factory needed tools and raw materials, and we purchased them from different suppliers rather than staying with a given supplier. This allowed us to inform many more people about Dafa and why the CCP was persecuting the practice. While I talked to people about Dafa, my brother sent righteous thoughts. Many people quit the CCP.
Our honesty during our business dealings helped people to overcome the CCP propaganda. For instance, when we bought milling cutters, we paid for the lower-priced ones, but when we opened the box, we found higher-priced alloy cutters inside. My brother immediately told the owner of the shop that he had given us the wrong cutters. This owner thanked us and said, “If you hadn’t returned these cutters I would have lost a lot of money. You're really honest.”
“Do you know that we are people of faith?” I said.
“Yes! It is much better to work with people who believe in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.”
Overcoming Interference
On a roundtrip that took more than 12 hours, I brought a customer to the factory to sign a contract. This was an excellent opportunity to talk about Dafa, the persecution, and quitting the CCP.
Then I played Master’s Fa audio lectures. He felt sleepy at first and did not seem to listen. His phone then kept ringing. I sent righteous thoughts to eliminate the interference, and there were no further interruptions.
Afterward, he asked for a copy, so his wife could hear them, too. She even came to our factory to pick up the recording. She said, “I support Falun Dafa. The CCP is the worst, and it’s on its way out.”
After the couple understood the truth about Dafa, they had complete trust in us and signed many contracts with us.
Recovery from a Heart Attack
A large enterprise often processes their products through our factory, although they initially did not have any confidence in us. But after they learned that we practice Falun Dafa, and after they worked with us several times, they were very confident about our service.
We served our customers by following the Dafa principles and gained their confidence. Our business kept growing, and one customer said, “Your factory gets divine help from above. How could you not do well?”
This customer had an acute heart attack. When we visited him in the hospital, I whispered to him, “Did you remember the words I told you?”
He nodded, smiled, and said, “Before I completely lost consciousness, I experienced total darkness. Then I remembered the phrases ‘Falun Dafa is good! Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!’ I recited them four times, and I woke up completely.”
He was discharged a month later. I suggested to him that he should cultivate in Dafa. Not long after, I helped him get the main book of Falun Dafa, Zhuan Falun.
No Loss, No Gain
I came to understand the principle of no loss, no gain by reading the Fa.
Our company logo is imprinted on all the products we manufacture. A customer claimed that a shaft we had made broke. When he returned the shaft, however, we could tell that it was not from our factory because it did not have our logo and it was of low quality.
There was some back and forth between our engineer, myself, and the owner of that company. However, my brother promised to make another shaft and said to me, “If it is yours, nobody will take it away.”
We replaced the shaft, and when the owner noticed a big difference in quality from the one that broke, he then finally believed that we had not made the broken one. He was apologetic and signed a large contract with us. Thus, we gained much more than we had lost by replacing his shaft.
Instead of worrying about loss and gain, we kept cultivating ourselves and shared the good news about Dafa with everyone we came in contact with, no matter how large the enterprise. They all came to understand the truth about Dafa and benefited from it.
